Georganna HancockOh, you're all so kind, and I do so much appreciate all your comments. Especially so, now that Technorati has demolished my authority level to almost zip and removed the "Fans" section. I really appreciate the 214 of you who have signed up here to make "A Writer's Edge" one of your Favorites!

Georganna HancockDear Friends in the Neighborhood,
I wish there was a way to send you all individual messages (in bulk). This will have to do.
Good news! "A Writer's Edge" has been nominated in Michael Stelzner's 4th annual 10 Top Blogs for Writers Contest.
If you would like to vote for AWE as a 2009 Top Blog for Writers, please nominate it at http://bit.ly/8NF7E in a comment at end (scroll down). The AWE URL is www.writers-edge.info/Blog.html (you will need that information to nominate A Writer's Edge). Thanks in advance. I know I can count on my Fans at Blog Catalog!
Best,
Georganna Hancock

abbelhak meftahHi I really find what you're saying important to link to it. nice blog.I'm writing a story at the moment and I'd like your opinion. Do you think the story should stop here or write on. good blogging.

Georganna HancockThanks for all the lovely comments. To receive a free weekly one-minute message of Inspiration just for writers, sign up with the form in the upper right corner of the main page for my blog. Or send an email with "BCSUB" in the subject line to: editor[AT]writers-edge.info
First you'll receive a welcome message (inspiration included), then a note by email towards the end of each week. It's my little way of giving you a kick in your writers' pants and a pat on the shoulder as encouragement and thanks.
Peter FendrichThanks I read your blog with interest! I am a non English native blog writer with the dilemma: With English I can probably reach (by far) a much larger group of readers but Swedish is my mother tongue. On the other hand linguistic errors and missing nuances will miss many readers!
Jack W.A very good blog.
Jack PayneExcellent blog. Leanings, tips, and advice in all directions for budding, aspiring writers.
Georganna HancockWhile my blog has been on vacation, it moved to:
http://www.writers-edge.info/Blog.html
You can still access it from the new home page for the website. Thanks for all the kind comments over the past year.
EnncraveHi Georganna,
Your site is very informative and educational, too.
I will become your regular visitor. More power and have a nice day... Cheers, Enn
SibbiaI just love your description of yourself in "About me"!
Nice blog!!
Jerry E. BeuterbaughI was debating whether or not I should add you as a friend and include your blog in my neighborhood; and I had pretty much made-up my mind not to. Then: I found your puppy; and now you're in.
On the other hand: I also noticed a lot of stuff that could prove invaluable unto me. So: I suppose it is not all the puppy's fault.
NAFASG - United And Dedicated Behind Youâ&Excellent articles. Keep up the great work.

Well looks like georganna needs a bit of a lift .. i have never heard of technorati so if i have never heard of them they do not exist. Well not to me they don,t. Ok georganna,s blog always stays true to itself and is one of my favourite watering holes, I can not even say I stop of to get a glimpse of a half naked chick none of that going on either,mmmmmm. Well it can only be the moms apple pie syndrome "whatever that is" but i will keep dropping by and keep attempting to find the half naked chick maybe one day. Got it !!. Must be the anticipation, ha ha love and kisses from stugod
